On the contrary, over and again, I make it abundantly clear that with respect to dasein [small d] I am actually excluding the preponderence of components that constitute our interactions with others.
Also, dasein is irrelevant with respect to the laws of science, the logical rules of language, the actual empirical reality that encompasses the world that we live in.
Think about what transpires in the course of going about your day. These are experiences in which dasein is seamlessly intermeshed in the multitude of facts that have come to be your life. Most times, you don’t really think about what you are doing [at home, on the job, being around others etc.] in terms of your “identity” at all.
Instead, it is only when what you are doing comes into conflict with another that you may be forced to think about how you might be doing something else instead. Why do you believe particular behaviors are right that others believe are wrong? How do we actually come to these very personal conclusions? I merely suggest that in large part with respect to “conflicting goods” identity is rooted largely in this: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=176529
Of course, the reason dasein appears so frequently in my posts is that I also make it abundantly clear that philosophy is interesting to me only insofar as it is useful in answering the question, “how ought one to live?”
Which sooner or later brings me back to this:
If I am always of the opinion that 1] my own values are rooted in dasein and 2] that there are no objective values “I” can reach, then every time I make one particular moral/political leap, I am admitting that I might have gone in the other direction…or that I might just as well have gone in the other direction. Then “I” begins to fracture and fragment to the point there is nothing able to actually keep it all together. At least not with respect to choosing sides morally and politically.
The irony then being that I come into places like this looking for arguments that might actually extricate me from this truly godawful “dilemma”.
Maybe, but the points that I raise regarding the relationship between dasein, conflicting goods and political economy either are or are not reasonable.
And folks either are or are not able to demonstrate to me that how they construe them instead is more reasonable still.
But I suspect [and this is purely conjectural] that many folks abandon exchanges with me because they sense that maybe I am on to something here. And if I am then maybe, just maybe, what I am on to is also applicable to them. But thinking like me is the last thing most folks want to be burdoned with. Instead, they find it more comforting and consoling living in one or another rendition of this: viewtopic.php?f=15&t=185296
Or so it seems to me.
Besides, as most well know from viewing my religion, determinism, film, song and mundane ironists threads, it’s not like the only thing I contribute here is reduced down to dasein.
